Key: C majorC

Verse:
             BB
Will I get nervous before my take, outside the club in Silver Lake
            G# minorG#m
And there's no mistaking your perfect practice innocence
                    E minorEm
I just start talking, you can see that I'm
          E MajorE         C# minorC#m
Not gonna to lie to you
       BB
And this folk music's fucking me up, make's me think I should quit
                   E MajorE
Maybe I'm just scared of it

Quick hit and a flip of a Zippo
Inhale and your eyes squint
    C# minorC#m
You point at me with a cigarette finger, say you find some good shit
        E MajorE
In the ruins
                                  BB
But deep down
I'm not sold on what we're doing
Deep down
I think you're seething with ambition
    G# minorG#m
Like everyone else around, you're on a mission
                 E MajorE
To see just how many likes you can get
Get your fingers wet
    C# minorC#m
And have the people watch you rub a freeze
   BB
But everyone needs to be seen
                    G# minorG#m
There's no growing in the dark
                                       E MajorE
You say, "It's just a pose", well, what's wrong with a pose?
We all invent ourselves as we go
         C#7C#7
So here we go
      BB
A augmentedA same old itch
The air's meant to protect myself
      G# minorG#m
Took a life on now and they're breathing on their own
               E MajorE
Some strange personality, living up on me that I've been trying to ditch
  C# minorC#m
I want things to be perfect, so I put it off
                  BB
Maybe progress now will do
I'm on the outside, never satisfied
               E MajorE
Something's always missing, so you convinced yourself
But you're beautiful
                 C# minorC#m
I mean, look at those hands
You're all purity with a splash of
      E MajorE
St Germaine
     BB
Oh
I want to be
A augmentedA daring one
      G# minorG#m
No more songs about being cozy and bored
                 E MajorE
Don't sing about the suburbs
And how you miss the scent of home
           C# minorC#m
An Elliot Smith clone's all you'll be
And miss all this urgency
    BB
And everyone needs to be seen
                   G# minorG#m
There's no growing in the dark
                               E MajorE
It's just a pose, well, what's wrong with a pose
We all invent ourselves as we go
         C#7C#7
So here we go
C# minorC#m                     BB
I look for you outside, after the show
  C# minorC#m
I look for you again
      BB
And I'll go with you 'cause I kinda love you
   G# minorG#m
If I see you again
I think I'm gonna kill you
      E MajorE
'Cause we'll keep doing this
                              C# minorC#m
Waiting around for someone who doesn't want me
To want me
                         BB
I've been looking longingly at the scene

E MajorE  C#m7C#m7  C# minorC#m  E MajorE    BB
